I haven't been to a botanical garden for a long time. Must be nice to have one so close. It also sounds like you have a lot of little vistors to your garden too.
I happened to find out about the lobster moth today, it's a cute moth. The caterpillars are fairly unusual looking which caught my eye at first.
